      I must say all these numbers make me feel normal compared to the fb group where they seem to drop 30 pounds a week. Great job all! Denise~Macon, GA

    6 week checkup was 38 pounds. I weighed 297 pre-surgery. I am about 11 weeks out now and my scale is about 55 pounds (241 this a.m.). It may be higher when I go in for next checkup because I weigh in my jammies, no shoes LOL.
